Former NFL executive Scot McCloughan recently spoke with the Oakland Raiders about a front-office position, but the two sides couldn't come to an agreement because McCloughan wanted full power. It appears that general manager Reggie McKenzie will remain in his role.

Oakland Raiders general manager Reggie McKenzie has done a good job of bringing the team out of salary-cap troubles and ushering in a talented draft class, according to owner Mark Davis. Davis said McKenzie is not an interim general manager.

Even though the Oakland Raiders are 0-9, some people within the organization believe general manager Reggie McKenzie may be safe in his job. The 2014 draft class has turned out well and injuries have decimated the roster.

While the status of Oakland Raiders general manager Reggie McKenzie is safe for now, owner Mark Davis has said the team's performance the rest of the season will determine whether McKenzie stays or goes.

Oakland Raiders general manager Reggie McKenzie said in a press conference Tuesday, Sept. 30, that he will be the one to hire the next head coach of the Oakland Raiders. McKenzie added that his job is safe and that owner Mark Davis has not threatened to fire him. Tony Sparano will serve as the team's interim head coach.

Oakland Raiders general manager Reggie McKenzie is not in trouble in terms of losing his job even though the team has struggled so far this season, according to a source. Owner Mark Davis believes McKenzie is building a foundation for the team.

Oakland Raiders general manager Reggie McKenzie said the team will not pass on a "great" wide receiver in the draft and wait for a "good receiver later in the draft."

Fantasy Tip:Sammy Watkins and Mike Evans are the two wideouts that are worth taking with the team's fifth overall pick in the first round. It would be surprising if Oakland passed both or one of them up if they were available at that pick.
